What a great site. I need to spend some time with it.
Check out my entry on attempts to start Big Hole grayling in the North Fork of the Sun. It failed.

Thank you, Tom. I enjoy reading your blog; it was a great find.
Yes, I too followed the effort to restore grayling in the Sun, Jeff, Ruby, and other rivers. A fisheries biologist friend tells me that, given the relatively few grayling planted, the odds of any of these populations taking hold as a wild, self-reproducing population are astronomical. With Montana FWP, it's always a matter of too little, too late. I hope that an ESA listing would help Montana FWP to take grayling recovery seriously.
Thank you. - Pat
